Approves of CEO
Pros
  • Diversity of projects: technical people work on different sectors/accounts.
  • Good senior management: they know what they want and where we're going.
  • Work/Life Balance: working from home is possible, and the business is supportive of personal circumstances.
  • Good opportunities for junior to mid-level grades to work on big systems/new technology.
Cons
  • You can get sent to anywhere in the country like most consultancies.
  • Little international focus; it's unlikely you'll work across borders.
  • Senior positions require less technical focus.
  • Middle management is awful; delegation rules.
  • Some good Enterprise Architects, but the majority are very poor technically.
Advice to Management
  • Improve the quality of technical hires.
  • Provide a more structured technical career advancement.
  • Improve the majority of middle-managers and the enterprise architects.
